“My mother has behaviors that are challenging to manage with the beginning stages of dementia. I live 3,000 miles away. Windward Life Care has been a Godsend. I have much more peace of mind now than before Windward.” – M.T.
“We have been most pleased with the services provided by Windward Life Care. We not only have a Care Health Manager, but a companion care gal as well, both provided by Windward. I moved out of state and the rest of my family are many miles away, so having some personal attention to our 97 yr old aunt was imperative! They have been responsive to our requests and have gone above and beyond the call of duty in some instances. We couldn’t be more pleased with the personnel assigned to overseeing our Aunt and feel most comfortable that she is getting the attention she needs. I would highly recommend this company.” – L.R.
“We never imagined how far-reaching and essential the work you provided would be.” – Anonymous
“We have felt that our Care Manager has a clear overview, is insightful and has everybody’s best interests at the top of the list.” – J.C.
